Methods, Measures, and Theories in Eyewitness Recognition Tasks
provides a comprehensive review of the fundamental issues
surrounding eyewitness recognition phenomena alongside suggestions
for developing a more methodologically rigorous eyewitness science.
Over the past 40 years, the field of eyewitness science has seen
substantial advancement in eyewitness identification procedures,
yet theoretical and methodological developments have fallen behind.
Featuring contributions from prominent international scholars, this
book examines methodological and theoretical limitations and
explores important topics, including how to increase the accuracy
of identifying perpetrators when using CCTV images, how to create
more identifiable facial composites, and the differences in
accuracy between younger and older eyewitnesses. Providing in-depth
discussion on the limitations of traditional lineups, eyewitness
memory fallibility, and the complications that arise when using
laboratory simulations, along with suggestions for new methods,
this book will be an invaluable resource for researchers in
eyewitness recognition, lawyers, players in the criminal justice
system, members of innocence commissions, and researchers with
interests in cognitive psychology.

The Wadi Araba etends south from the Dead Sea to the Gulf of Aqaba,
and has only comparatively recently become the subject of any
sustained study. This monograph synthesises previous work on the
area to produce an overview of its Hellenistic to Byzantine history
and settlement. Smith first covers the larger settlements, forts
and caravanserais, then examines smaller scale occupation of their
hinterlands and communication routes and links, before outlining a
historical narrative from documentary sources.

Many plants, animals, and microbes use adhesive polymers and
structures to attach to inert substrates, to each other, or to
other organisms. This is the first major review that brings
together research on many of the well-known biological adhesives.
Emphasizing the diversity of biological adhesives and associated
adhesion processes, it deals with bacteria, fungi, algae, and
marine and terrestrial animals. It bridges a variety of disciplines
including biochemistry, molecular biology, biomechanics,
bioengineering, microbiology, organism structure and function, and
ultrastructure. As we learn more about the molecular and mechanical
properties of these adhesives, we begin to understand why they
adhere so well and how they develop cohesive strength. With this
understanding comes the prospect of developing synthetic or
semi-synthetic adhesives with broad applications in areas such as
medicine, dentistry, and biotechnology. The book is suitable for
both industrial and academic researchers.
